Help me decide on a rack please.

[ShelbyCraig]

Ok so im getting rid of this homemade rack I have and I'm going to buy a new AP rack but I can't decide on what which one I want. I have it narrowed down to two. One holds 32 quart sterilite tubs and the other holds 32 sterilite sideways and 15 quart sterilites. I guess if I got the first one i could still use the 15 quart but it would just be back further so thats a down side for that one, but if i got the second one I would have sideways tubs which is a downside for me. Any input from anyone would be very much appreciated.

Why are sideways tubs a downside?

How big are the snakes you intend to house in this rack?

It's not a big problem I just don't like the way they look although I wouldn't have to pull the tub out all the way. Im going to be housing all my snakes from what they are now into when their adults. Pretty much a forever home.

I have the sideways rack you listed above in the economy version. You don't have to pull the tubs all the way out... it actually makes it easier to get at the snakes for me. I still have a small bit of that primal fear when reaching down a dark passage that I can't see into for an animal that eats hand sized food the same temp as my body. I think it does technically use a longer piece of flexwatt but hopefully the cost of running the flexwatt isn't a concern if you're into this hobby. I also like being able to grow out and house adults in the same rack.
